Hi, I have a silverstone lc17s-c case with a gigabyte 965p s3 mobo, but think there is no internal speaker to beeb on first power up. Can I use headphones through my mobo instead, or will there definitely be a speaker in the case?

Thanks

Welcome wylstar!

I would have thought there would be a speaker in the case but a hardware tech will confirm this.

Hello Wylstar,

Welcome to The Site,
Is there any major reason you want to have the beep at startup? It's not really necessary apart from, like me, a bit of a security blanket .

There is usually a small "speaker" on the motherboard that will beep on POST (Power On Self Test).
This can be disabled/enabled in some BIOS's by tapping [del/f2/whatever you Bios manufacturer suggests] and finding the setting to enable/disable silent boot.
Hope this helps
